Cerro de Gorría

Cerro de Gorría is a mountain summit in the Sierra de Ávila range standing at 1,708 meters, characterized by granite rock formations covering its slopes. The peak emerges prominently from the surrounding plateau and forms a visible landmark within the Sistema Central mountain system.

The mountain has served as a natural landmark for local populations throughout history, marking geographical boundaries in the area. Its prominent position made it a key reference point that shaped movement and settlement patterns in the region.

Cerro de Gorría functions as an outdoor recreation center where visitors engage in mountaineering activities while observing the regional flora and fauna.

The ascent from Pasarilla del Rebollar takes around one hour following marked hiking trails. Several viewpoints along the route allow visitors to stop and rest while enjoying expansive views of the surrounding terrain.

From the peak, visitors can observe four distinct landscape regions spreading across the horizon: la Moraña, the Amblés valley, Sierra Paramera, and the Serrota mountain range. This exceptional vantage point reveals the geographic diversity of the area in a single panoramic view.
